Kuleba on the security agreement with the United States: "First money, then signing"
Kyiv • UNN
Ukraine will be able to sign a security agreement with the United States only after Congress approves further aid to Ukraine.
The United States will be able to sign an agreement on security cooperation with Ukraine after the Congress makes a positive decision on assistance to Kyiv. This was stated by Ukrainian Foreign Minister Dmytro Kuleba in an interview with the Voice of America, UNN reports.
"First the money, then the signing. These safeguards agreements are very specific. They specify the amounts, they specify the specific things that the parties to this agreement will work on, and the United States will be able to sign this agreement when they have a clear understanding of what resources are at their disposal. But we have no doubt that such an agreement will be signed with the United States," Kuleba said.
